Safari screen freezes, grey

Using Safari, search works but screen is greyed and frozen. Any ideas?

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe

    That is usually the fix but try this now.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. See if that helps.
    You can also try this - quit Safari. From the home screen - Double tap the home button and your recent apps appear the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Safari icon until it wiggles. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the app. Tap the home button twice. Restart the iPad.

  • Screen freezing grey - intermittent

    Hi all,
    My MacBook Pro has started to behave strangely with the screen freezing and turning a grey color for a period and time and then coming back to life. It used to be occasional but its happening more frequently now. It seems to come and go, and might last a few minutes or longer. A few times it lasted so long, that I had no choice but to switch off power and restart. Everything just freezes and it turns grey and sometimes get more and more saturated grey after 30-60 seconds. I can tell the CPU is still processing but I hear the normal sounds with applications running. I tried putting it to sleep and then wake it up, but the grey is still there.
    Any ideas?
    Paul

    Sounds like a hardware problem with the screen or graphics card then, best give Apple a call.

  • Safari screen freeze trackpad

    Sometimes when I hit the trackpad in just the wrong way my Safari screen will try to zoom and then access to it is impossible as the graphics freeze. I can go to other tabs and windows and they work fine, so I think it's got to do with some sort of a redraw function, but that's just a guess.
    Any ideas?

    I have the 2 finger scroll problem as well..... it happens when mac is not plugged to power supply and upon scrolling all the text becomes wrapped/warped/disjointed and and can be shaken back to become good agian.
    the store temporarily fixed it by deleting all the software and loading again.
    it worked fine until this morning i had to reset safari..... back to square one again.

  • When opening Safari, screen freezes with word "Connecting"... Help!

    WiFi connection is excellent. When I try to open Safari to browse, screen goes to a gray color and word "Connecting" appears while the little icon that symbolizes the wait for an operation to be completed just spins and spins. It would go all day trying to connect if the battery would let it... Ever heard of this problem? Thanks so much!

    Have you tried the standard reset?
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the
    Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • My safari screen just suddenly becomes grey or sometimes upside down and doesn't allow me to scroll. Any suggestions?

    As of today when I try to scroll in safari the screen freezes and sometimes it becomes grey, other times when I try to scroll the screen becomes upside down. Any suggestions to solve this?

    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.

  • I cannot access the internet, I tried to answer that said to go to settings, safari, tap clear history, cookies and cache, cut off, then on, but it did not work.  When I go to internet the screen is grey??? please help I am a new user!!

    I cannot access the internet the screen is grey, I have tried by using the answer from someone but it does not work...I went to settings, tap safari, then clear the history, cookies, and cache, then turn off ipad.  When I did that twice, it did not work.  How long does it take for the clear history to work?  I am a brand new
    user of the ipad2 and I am disappointed that this is happening already.

    Have you been able to access the internet previously and now it's suddenly not working, or are you still trying to access the internet for the first time on your iPad?  Are you at home trying to connect through your home router?  If you are at home, did you put your home routers encryption code as your password?  The encryption code is what your iPad is looking for and it is usually found on the router and is typically a 13 digit combination of letters and numbers.  Let us know......

  • Ipad Safari screen is tinted in grey appears to be stuck? Cannot search?

    I have an Ipad 1. When I go to Safari my screen is grey and it appears to be stuck?  I just reset my network connection and it seemed to fix the problem.  What hapened?

    In the future, try tapping Settings / Safari. Clear the History, Cookies, and Cache.
    Restart your iPad.
    Press and hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider then swipe to power off. Then press and hold the sleep / wake button until you see the Apple logo.
    If that doesn't help, reset network settings.
    There may have been an interruption with your Wi-Fi.

  • Grey Screen Freeze after 10.6.7 update

    I have 2 iMacs. My wife's is 2008 3.06 Ghz 24" model with Snow Leopard. Just updated to 10.6.7, and on re-boot we entered perpetual grey screen freeze ups. Followed guidance from support article - specifically to remove peripherals (attached were 2 USB devices - HP inkjet printer and WD 500G portable HD used as Time Machine. Also connected to LAN via RJ-45) After re-boot I changed network to airport to access LAN. When I re-inserted ethernet jack the grey screen immediately came up. Tried various combinations and ethernet connect always kills machine. Any ideas? I'm holding off on 10.6.7 update for other iMac.

    Because I've had strange problems with past system update downloads, I now always get my system updates from http://support.apple.com/downloads/
    I always use the Update Combo version. It installs a fresh set of all previous updates as well as the new one. This gives you a fresh beginning with system 10.6.x. Since I adopted that practice, I've had no more issues with updates.

  • My iMac screen freezes and a grey colour slowly creeps down my screen

    Hi, my iMac screen freezes and a grey colour slowly creeps down the screen and has a large black square in the centre saying "You must restart your computer by pressing the power button and then pressing it again to restart" or words to that effect in English and about 4 or 5 other languages.  I find this happens more frequently when I try to stream movies or tv shows.  It also happened when I was trying to download a couple of tv shows from iTunes. 
    It also sometimes makes a wierd sound a kind of loud noise like a record stuck in a groove.  This has happend many times since upgrading to Lion.  I hear a lot of people on here talking about their screens going completely black and not responding.  I believe that mine has only gone black a couple of times and I couldn't wake it up from "sleep mode" with the mouse or keyboard.  I don't know if this is also happening to other people, but my bluetooth keyboard keeps disconnecting all the time since the upgrade as well, it's driving me nuts!!  Plus my wifi will show that it is fully operational, however, I can't use the internet when I wake my computer from sleep mode.  I have to click on wifi and turn wifi off then on again before i can use it.
    Is Apple going to come out with a fix or are we going to eternally suffer indefinitley.

    Hi Eric,
    I don't know why it didn't work before, but here is the most recent errol log.  It crashed again about an hour later.  If there is a solution, i would greatly appreciate knowing what it is because I can't enjoy using my computer anymore because of these constant crasahes.
    Thanks for your time.

  • IPad 2 Safari screen greyed and unresponsive

    Safari screen greyed and unresponsive have cleared I think it happens when too many windows are open. Solved it once by reinstalling is there a less drastic solution?

    The "sleep" button is the same as the on/off button.
    The Home button is the button that returns you to the App screens. (Center of bezel on narrow edge of iPad).
    Restart: Press the On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, to restart press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).

  • My touch pad does not work only when using Safari browser. The screen was grey. Help!

    My touch pad does not work only when I use Safari browser online. The screen was grey. No matter what I do, there is no reponse. Only the web address box works. What is this problem? I can use App Store and everything else fine.
    Someone please help.
    Thanks

    I would try:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and delete cache, history and cookies.

  • Update to 7.1 causes screen freeze upon closing from Safari and slow wifi connection.

    I updated my iPad 3 last weekend.   Right after the update the screen froze and I had to restart it by holding the home button and on/off switch.  Ever since then the screen freezes a minimum of once a day. This normally happens when closing Safari.  I've also been kicked off of Facebook several times and brought back to the home screen.  Not to mention my wifi internet connection is running super slow at home and work. Any ideas of what this is happening?   My husband updated his iPad 2 and is not experiencing these issues.  We think the update may have been corrupted but not sure what to do.  Thanks in advance for help on this.

    The screen froze again yesterday.  This time it happened while I was in the photos app.  The screen starts to shrink when I pinch it but it doesn't close all the way.  I get a small "thumbnail" of the screen which gets stuck.  I am very good about making sure I don't have a lot of open apps, I try to close them all everyday by double clicking the home button and swiping them up. If you have any ideas please let me know.  I am going to try and keep a log of when this happens, what is open in the background and which app gets frozen.  Thanks again for the help on the internet slowness.  It is working fine now.  Not sure if this makes a difference but this is a refurbished iPad 3 that is about a year and a half old.
